minnesota is a purple state. i am super proud we are the only state since 1972 that have voted for a democratic candidate for president. we voted for mondale. we voted for mondale. but we are dwighted. our legislature hinges on one or two each way. as governor since 2019, i have had in those six years, four of them split and two of them where we had the majority. and i will go to the split one and get the budget done. we have the most narrowly divided. the house is tied 67-67. and we have a one vote majority. and i say this and everything wag a veto. we bassed a balanced budget. we looked over the horizon and we are constitutionally to balance in the next two years and we look out with some of the structural imbalance that were increasing too much and put curbs on those, democrats curbing government growth and to do so republicans voted for tax increasing. we had to compromise. may or clinic. we also provide and health care is a human right. and what ended up happening the republicans said we will shut the govern

these are state legislators who were targeted in minnesota.hese people are not going to be able to get the level of security that a member of congress can get. amna: a sobering reminder. i want to pull back just a little bit and take a bigger look at some of the president's top priorities in the context of all the news and the stories we are individually reporting on. take a look. this is a nonexhaustive list of some of the deadlines the president has set for himself. on trade, he promised 90 deals in 90 days. we know the tariffs are now set to go into effect july 8. on the run, he said 60 days to reach a nuclear deal and the deadline for that passed on june 11 and now we see israel striking iran and iran striking back. he said that was an exaggeration. on immigration, the president and vice president promised one million deportations in year one. so far, there's about 200,000 as of the second week of june. on immigration alone, as lisa was reporting, he has rolled back some of the raids on business sectors that were impacted, targeting democr

as we just talked about with minnesota. really caused fractures within trump's base, you have them in the maga base who believe we should have this more isolationist stance. they were very against israel doing anything. they believe that donald trump was leading the way in preventing israel from escalating tensions of course, they don't want to be involved in russia and ukraine. on the other hand, you still have that reagan part of the republican party that absolutely believes that we need to protect democracies. the only democracy in the middle east in this case with israel and as well with ukraine. those tensions are only going to get exacerbated as the tensions worldwide get exacerbated as well. >> martha: and, rachel, we look around the world, but yesterday we had the military celebrating the u.s. army's 250th anniversary and president trump's birthday. it went well. he was in control. he gave probably the shortest speech of his presidency ever, ten minutes, and stayed on script. >> yeah. i will tell you after attending

the leadership in this country, in minnesota, in minnesota alone, 80% of our workforce will come from communities of color over the next 75 years, even if you have no moral courage in your body at all. if you want to see us survive economically, you damn sure better start investing in black communities and making sure they're healthy and educated. so to all of you, the works in front of us. it's not going to be easy. we're facing a pretty unprecedented time in our history. but what comes with that is the privilege. we get to be part of that fight when the story is written of what happened during this time period, they will scarcely believe that this country chose donald trump over kamala harris, but they did. but the real story that will be written is how did we respond after that election. how did we respond to the challenges? and it starts with an individual and it gets bigger and bigger. so here we are in one of the reddest states according to that stupid map that you'll find. with a room full of people who care about their neighbors, a room full of people who's willing to take the
